You turn into a ghost.

Now you're probably wondering, if there have been billions of humans who have died, why aren't there billions of ghosts running around. Well you see, the laws of physics don't work on ghosts, and gravity doesn't keep them on earth. When you die, as earth and our solar system move through the universe, it just leaves all the ghosts stuck floating in the endless void of space, right where they died. Hopefully you die close to someone else so you can talk with the other ghosts, but if it's just you....

In a book called Everlost, when you die you sink into the planet unless you're standing on dead ground like a burnt forest or house and stuff.
So I'm going with all the ghosts sank to the core of the earth and got compressed into various metals.

Oh I like that!! Just think of all the dead people in your cell phone right now.

I imagine the ghost juice just kinda mixes together into one mass and fuses with whatever material as a ghost alloy.

You go into Spectate Mode until the end of the current round of existence, after which we get team-scrambled for the next match. You can choose to spawn in as a passive bird if you like, though.

Game clock says we still have a few billion years left in the round but if someone on the Retrovirus team scores another flag capture we could restart sooner

Speaking of ghost juice: I once heard of a Thai folk tradition that after death, contrary to mainstream Theravada Buddhist views, the 'you-ness' kind of leaks out of your orifices into the air, then works its way into other people and animals. And if someone was a real piece of poo poo, they would like seal their nostrils and mouth with clay so it wouldn't happen. But if you were good, all of that lives on with others.

There is a momentary realisation this is the 758th time you've been reborn.
You start screaming with horror, but this is misinterpreted as a "healthy set of lungs".
Then someone jams a tit in your mouth and the colostrum makes you forget.

once I've traveled through the underworld to have Osiris, Pharaoh of the Land of the Dead, weigh my heart against the feather of Ma'at, I reckon I'm a shoo-in for the Field of Reeds. just gotta remember to have some a bunch of shabtis made beforehand, so I have magic servants who can take my place when that same Osiris wants me to go work for him

When you die, a ghost comes and sucks your soul out of your dick or vag. It’ll feel like you’re just about to come and then you turn into a ghost so as a ghost you’re always feeling like you’re just about to come that’s why theyre always floating around going “oooooooooo.”

Also, you then gotta suck the soul out of the next person to die.

You spend like 10 seconds in a natural DMT trip that feels like tens of thousands of years of dreamy disembodiment then you stop existing.

okay so the research that was done by Hamilton and a team of biologists and chemists basically proved that there really isnt a massive dmt store in brains and that it doesn’t really appear to naturally occur in any real quantity but i hope they are wrong but alas,

There was a cool post on futilitycloset once about how some people who have survived executions throughout history basically described a DMT trip and begged to be put back to death because it was so beautiful but I can't find it now (wait here it is https://www.futilitycloset.com/2019/06/27/exit-strategies-2/). And even though what you're saying here is true there has been a whole lot of other research that has showed pretty much the same thing like:

People describing DMT trips describe them the same way as people who survived near-death experiences describe their near death experience: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.01424/full

DMT actually does occur naturally in mammalian brains though yeah it's not 'massive stores': https://www.michiganmedicine.org/health-lab/mystical-psychedelic-compound-found-normal-brains

and yes that includes the human brain: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5048497/
(okay technically it's called INMT instead of DMT when it occurs naturally)


so yeah DMT: The Spirit Molecule is bullshit (much like everything graham hancock puts out lol) but there's a lot of evidence that pretty much points to the same thing it did to a lesser degree


I guess I meant "DMT Trip" in a more drug-agnostic sense that the start of death just a psychedelic trip even if it's not directly from DMT
